Nursing Bras???

post #1 of 6
Thread Starter 
Ok all you experienced Mommies. I need some help PLEASE... I'm desperate.

I'm pregnant, due in December with our first. I've been through 2 increases in cup size already and am about going out of my mind trying to find a comfortable, quality nursing bra. I'm beginning to think it's just not possible

The ones I've tried so far are either made poorly, fit terribly, don't function very well... or I end up with lumpy looking boobs because the cups don't "play nice" after being washed (hand or washer). Which is particularly annoying since I'm still working and have to look somewhat professional... a bit hard to do with a lumpy chest.

Any particular brands or places to look?

THis is my favorite bra. I am a 34B/C and it works just fine. I bought it when I was a 36D and 8 mo pregnant with #3 and have worn it since. I find it gives me good shaping- the best of any nursing bra I have had (and that has been quite a few).

I also have some of these-http://breakoutbras.stores.yahoo.net/suspminubrab.html

Prettier- but not quite as great as the body silk.

I also have a Bravado nursing tank (LOVE IT) and several Glamourmom tanks (love those a lot too- just not quite the same love as the bravado).

HTH!

I have tried a few and so far my favorite has been a bestform nursing bra. They seem to hold up well. The only issue is that I can only find it at Wal Mart and they are not really carrying it in the stores anymore.

If you find it somewhere else please PM me. This is the only thing that I get at Walmart and wouldn't mind buying it somewhere else

I got this Medela nursing bra at Babies R Us:

It's the comfiest one I've found, and really easy to nurse while wearing. I wear it to bed & around the house. It isn't the most supportive bra, so you may want to wear a different one if you're going out, but it's great for at home.

I bought 2 nursing bras at Motherhood Maternity, which were non-returnable. They seemed ok when I tried them on. It really sucked when I wore one for a full day & ended up with a blister on my chest where the material rubbed! HATE them.

I tried the Motherhood bras as well and they either were terribly itchy or just unbearable by the end of the day... which is what started my search ... and of course am not in love with that store anyway because of the return policy... as if we don't have enough headaches and decisions with pregnancy...

I've tried a number of bras - LLL (okay.. but haven't held up real well in the wash), target one (okay, but not real nice fit) and I have a few Bravado Bras. I have always been super pleased with bravado. If you contact customer service at bravado they will send you a couple sizes to try and then you send back what you want and then they will charge you for what you keep. Their service is amazing and the bras are very comfortable.
